Look up “John Harvey Kellogg circumcision”. A lot of the US obsession with cutting up baby penisses is because of him and his obsession with preventing boys from masturbating.

So that’s why I’m still so useless. Damn chemo, you took my chance.

…while being forced to do so to achieve a basic thing, and after finding it as the solution on the web (because it usually is). Remember, Pop!_OS screwed up so badly that the installation of a common user program caused the removal of core system packages. While it’s correct to expect people to read warnings, expecting beginners and common users to either learn about the (very complex) inner workings of an operating system just to install something or to let go of their entire gaming library is unreasonable. And although Linus of course should have an interest in learning these things given his work and should’ve taken more care, the video was specifically to showcase how their experience as new users look like. And Pop!_OS was generally regarded as user-friendly, not as solely aimed at professionals (important detail).

If the only solution to a problem with a very common task on a user-friendly OS is hidden behind an advanced-level skill wall (yes, knowing all the important packages if your OS means you’re an advanced user) that may kill you if you do a single wrong action then your system offers shitty solutions.

Fortunately both user-friendly distros and aspects of them like Flatpak have gone way further since then, so this shouldn’t happen as easily anymore. The warnings in apt are way more noticeable now too I think. The Linux community learned from all the bad press… most of it at least.

Yeah, LibreOffice stuck with the old UI/UX for better and worse. Luckily we do have a nice selection of Office Suites in addition to them. OnlyOffice, WPS Office, Collabora, KDE Calligra, Softmaker Office… surely there’s one for everyone on Linux.

Personally I like OnlyOffice.

We all forget what it really was to be 6, yet we’re still us. To never change yourself isn’t a virtue and change doesn’t mean “losing yourself”, that’s a fallacy made up by the fearful. Friendship is also a temporary thing, you always lose some and gain some no matter how close (we as humans just hate to think about it that way).

All these supposed problems with immortality really are just made up, or an attempt to romanticise the painfully inevitable.

I just tested Winlator on my 6 year old phone yesterday to get a feeling what kind of punch the way more modern Steam Frame Hardware might gonna yield. It ran Crysis on Medium Settings with high framerate no problem, on an old Snapdragon 845.

The Steam Frame gonna be awesome af.

I use openSUSE btw.

Is that a plushy uterus?

Tittiiiiiees!

What are you talking about? You can copy-paste from Terminal programs to GUI programs and vice-versa like everywhere else (with the terminal of course needing CTRL + SHIFT + C / V, which as we know is historical to Unix terminals). I’m doing that for years, so does my family. It works just fine.

And bringing up Nvidia now really is bending down backwards to paint Wayland as bad while it’s painfully obvious it’s the driver’s fault. We all know the classic Nvidia driver sucks in more ways than one and loves to break, even Nvidia knows that and works on a replacement. That’s not Wayland’s fault.

What’s always funny to me when someome brings up missing features of Wayland is how, apparently, the missing features of X11 are getting pushed under the table or somehow also blamed on Wayland in some twisted way. Like, holy shit, compare the display settings of KDE on a modern display between Wayland and X11. My laptop didn’t even show a third of all options anymore.

Sure, it will be nice once Wayland can do a few things (better), the current development push surely helps. But it’s not like X11 can do everything either.

Same. Might be an issue with the legacy install method, the Flatpak OBS works like a charm.

“One call and he would’ve been safe”

By calling the cops? Lol, good joke.

There’s no way to do that, I understand the desire though…

Unfortunately the good solutions are all non-authoritarian left-wing (free high quality education, accessible therapy, walkable mixed-zones cities so kids are safe on their own by design, free health- and daycare, good strong social security, high wages and strong job security, lower working hours etc. etc.), so literally the furthest thing away from the current political climate. Either because right-wingers hate it in general or because they’re so stuck in their phantasms they won’t identify the correct solution if it was standing right in front of them.

They’re open about it [1, 2, 3]. Even praise it as “the next big thing”, and use stuff you smear into your face as example.

It’s kinda funny once you accept our twisted dystopia.

The hell is wrong with people. It can’t even be art by the very definition of art. It’s literally just lifeless pixel mush done by nobody, showing nothing, meaning nothing.

Most aren’t allowed to choose… they’re just made to “look just like daddy down there”. Especially US culture is so fucked up in this regard.

(millenia old rituals might be bad as well)

No, I don’t think so. US americans got widely manipulated into believing early foreskin amputation is cleaner, “better” and perhaps even more natural by a homophobe rich guy (Kellogg - yes, that one) who saw it as a way to prevent children from masturbating. Sometimes it goes so far they even find normal penisses disgusting or something not normal, which this comic is portraying. By now they managed to build a whole industry around it, with baby foreskins being an ingredient for - and that’s also no joke - skincare products. And of course the high need and therefore sales of Viagra are also attached to it. So this perverted culture gets reinforced by multiple economical incentives by now.

And if you think that’s utterly fucked up… well yeah, it is. Way, WAY more than a bad joke about someone who wishes to date someone with the same religion and is a dick about it.

Same, I always think of CJ from GTA:SA because of the gimp suit mission. Heard about the other definition later when I could actually speak english a little bit more (age restrictions never worked, lol).

Those are not thigh-highs.
